Hilarious Video of Snooty French Designer Telling Client to Design Their Own Furniture
You know you've always wanted to do this
By Rain Noe - January 17
As a designer, think of all the things you've wanted to say to clueless clients, but couldn't, as you'd like to continue earning a living. Well, here's a bit of wish-fulfillment fantasy where an avant-garde, I've-had-it-with-all-of-you French designer instructs his clients on how to design and build their own goddang chair:
If you're wondering what that video is even a commercial for, it's actually for a Swedish law firm called Vinge. If all of their commercials were design-skewering skits, I'd totally binge watch them.

How my ID senses work before marketing tells me we can't afford anything proposed, but still want it faster, cheaper, and better than the best product on the market. I'll try the French accent next time and see if I get the same results!
